THE R4HUAY MURDER

The dreadful murder of young woman nj
Railway. N. j., has naturally shocked and eX-
cited the people of the neighborhood, but III
their complaints of the police for falling TO
solve the mystery they arc lese than reasonable,
considering the circumstances. The case was
really one of the blindcst conceivable. The
murdered girls identity has only just been es-
abhlishcd. to begin with, and this delay greatly
restricted the researches Of the police. When
a stranger is found dead it Is always
specially difficult to find clews to the crime.
There is nothing to build upon. The habits
associations. antcccdcnts OF the victim are
wholly unknown. In this case the motive OF
the crime appears 10 have been robbery, but
there is nothing to show what If anything,
was taken from the body, and only the absence
of all money suggests this motive. 1t may,
however, not be the right one. Revenge would
perhaps explain the crime nearly. The
place of tho crime again is against discovery.
1t was committed in the open air, on public
highway late al night. Whether the murderer
was stranger to the girl, who met her casually
and proceeded on the spur OF the moment 10
rob her. or whether he was some one who knew
her and who cnticcd her to Railway for the
express purpose of killing her, cannot 10
gathered from the external conditions of the
crime.
There is still room for the widest and widest
conjecture, in fact. Nothing appears to guido
the Judgment between the opposite theories OF
casual and deliberate murder. The assassin
may have been tramp who never saw the girl
before that night; or he may have been
person intimately related TO her, and who had
special motives for getting her out of the way
All this is apparently impcnctrablc mystery
nor is it any easier to determine whether the
location Of the crime was fortuitous or calcu-
lated The fact that it was eminently adapted
to conceal tho traces of the criminal proves
nothing. 1t may result from the cunning of
shrewd man. and just as likely from pure acct
dent. If tramp did the deed nothing is more
natural than that it should have been done
where 1t was done. If it was done by some one
who knew tho girl he must have chosen the
spot precisely because Of its loneliness. But
so long as the victim remained unrccognizcd,
no safe basis Of research could he obtained.
Now that the identity of the victim has. how
ever. been established, the police, il is to be
hoped. will soon get on the track Of her
murderer.

THE APPROPRIATIONS.
murderer.

1t was at first reported from Washington
that the appropriations male during the recent
session of Congress amounted TO nearly $780,
100000. This proves a mistake. for
printed statement prepared by the clerks to
the Committees on Appropriations of the Senate
and House Of Representatives F" makes tho az
Grcgatc for the fiscal year ISIS only $2is,
jGs, $50 81. While there is an apparent de-
crease in appropriations for army purposes for
tho legislative. executive and judicial service
and for sundry civil purposes, this decrease is
small in comparison with the large increase IN
miscellaneous appropriations, exclusive Of tho
s., 7G9,O15 2S appropriated last year for pay
mcnt of the Alabama claims. 1t therefore
seems probable that the appropriations for
every branch OF the Government. except for
the Indians. so far rs new bills were passed at
all, if properly classified would lc found larger
than for the current year. Tho following
compares the official statements Of appropria
tons for the two years

THE CROPSEY COLLECTION

There will be sold this oning vt Orgies's Gallery
collection Of sixty-two oil paintings. water-coors
and black ami white drawings by Mr. Jasper 2.
Cropscy, whose work Is familiarl known to all who
visit Academy exhibitions. Mr.. Cropsey has
been before public for over generation; indeed
he elected to the National Academy as early "a
1851. With the exception Of few years passed In
London he has boon regular exhibitor In New.
York, and tho announcement of this exhibition and
sale will attract the attention Of those who have
been interested In his work from year to year. Mr.
Cropsey was the first OF artists TO present Ia
English eyes distinctive phase Of American
scenery and he has remained faithful, for the most
part, to the autumnal coloring which impressed tina
English public twenty-five years ago. Of this tho
more important examples in this collection are 9Ihe
Pioneers Home" large canvas Of unchastened col.
oring, and "Whte Mountain Scenery, which ia a
good example OF the artists manner. There Ara
many autumn scenes along the Hudson, and we have
also noted gay scene on the river at Hastjnas

part Of the increase is due TO The Mexican
Pensions bill, giving $69OOOOO, which il in.

appropriations for last year included about An
equal amount Of extraordinary approximations
namely, So, 100, Ol5 % for Alabama claims

The increase in appropriation for postal mr..
poses Is in part due to the creation OF n lnrpc
number Of new Offices, especially in Virginia
and other Southern States, by which CON
ycnicnt places have been made for WORKING
Democrats. The increase in appropriations for
the District Of Columbia is also significant in
view OF tho operations Of the real estate RING
there.
When the appropriations for tie current
year were made, it was remarked with intense
Indignation by Democratic journals that tho

has been exceeded by the same Congress at its
second session, so far as tho appropriations

ccrncd. But tho failure Of three important
bills makes the aggregate placed at the disposal
Of the Treasury much smaller than the amount
appropriated for the current year, and far be-
low the estimates Of the Secretary of the
..casury. To measure the bearing of these
appropriations upon the distribution of the
probable surplus revenue, il is necessary TO con
slider that half tho appropriation each year for
tho District OF Columbia is supposed to bo COW

The 1000 passengers who are snowbound on
the Intercolonial Railway will probably have a
poor appreciation of the advantages Of this
branch of the Canadian route to the Pacific.
Travelling at the rate of two miles in 100 hours
is rather monotonous to say the least. The
Canadians seem to be badly in need of snow
sheds.
